Abstract
We present a case of abdominal lymphangioma in a fetus together with a review of the literature. Diagnosis was made at 20 weeks' gestation by antenatal ultrasonography. In keeping with other reports, the lesion was located on the left and serial ultrasonography demonstrated rapid growth with extension into the lower extremity.
